I am not a vegetarian, but I would happily pay double to eat meat that doesn't result in an animal being killed. But it'd have to taste okay, at least, for me to make that jump. Doesn't have to be perfect, but has to satisfy a craving for a burger or something like that.

Why settle for the at least? when we can have the perfect one.

I think there are things beyond just craving, Y isn't it about eating the most healthy food?

If we care so much about "an animal being killed" then what to do to tigers and lions and other carnivores.

I think a lion eating a deer feels more natural than a man eating a lab grown thing.

Why this much push into loosing our nature? Apart from capitalism could there be any other reason?

I think it comes down to progress. Most of the meat we consume has a heavy toll on the environment. And with many other countries developing, gaining wealth and having the purchasing power to consume meat regularly, it's going to be a disaster. We innovate in so many respects, why can't we innovate with tasty, satisfying ways to consume proteins and fats that don't have the destructive nature that our current system has?
